JUNIOR NEWSPAPER CARRIERSNEEDED IN ERLANGER AREA
EDGEWOOD — It may seem a littleunusual at first, raising funds for aplay area at a hospice center, but actu-ally it’s an important need.
Keli Catalano, who’s organizing thefundraising effort to build a play areaat St. Elizabeth Hospice in Edgewood,understands this firsthand.
“I remembercoming intohospice tovisit my mom and I’d always see chil-dren sitting in thewaiting areas. Somekids spend all day visiting their lovedones,” Catalano said.
“That’s hard on a kid. After mymother passed away, I wanted to dosomething for this wonderful place
that had done so much for her. When Ilooked at their wish list the play areareally stood out to me,” she said.
Catalano decided she wanted tostart a fundraising campaign for theplayground.
“In addition to this being somethingfor children in need, it’s also some-thing soothing for those in hospicecare,” she said. “It’s soothing to seechildren playing and to know that lifecontinues on.”
So Catalano has started a campaignthrough the online fundraising sitegofundme.com.
To reward and encourage more do-nors, she’s offering a deal through herhumor-based greeting card businessColette Paperie in Northside. For ev-
erydonationof$10ormore,ColettePa-perie will give them 10 free greetingcards, a $45 value.
Other businesses have chipped inand are sponsoring giving levels too.For example, donations of $50 receivea gift card to the Eagle Bar & Grill inOver-the-Rhine.
So far Catalano has raised $2,781. Atotal of $25,000 is needed. Catalanosaid she’s hopeful that by getting theword out, more people will donate andthe totalwill be raisedas early asOcto-ber of this year.

Funds sought for hospice play areaByMelissa [email protected]
ERLANGER — With beautifi-cation plans in place and newbusinesses moving in, accord-ing to city officials, the city ofErlanger is positioned forgrowth and development.
“I would say this is an excit-ing time to be in Erlanger,” CityAdministratorMarcFieldssaid.“There are many good thingscoming.”
Sprucing upCommonwealth Avenue
For many residents and visi-tors, Commonwealth Avenue,off of Interstate 75, is part oftheir daily commute. For manyyears there was nothing specialto note about this gateway intothe community, however, “all ofthat is in the midst of change,”Erlanger community liaisonBeckyHopkins said.
Last summer, a portion of theavenuebecame linedwith trees.Now,sidewalksarebeginningtoflank the area. These walkwaysare lined with a brick border,she said, providing further defi-nition to the area.
What is that definition beingbrought forward exactly? It’snot just about aesthetics, ac-cording to Hopkins. The intentbehind this effort is to “spurgrowth and economic develop-ment.”
There are plans for furtherlandscaping improvements allalong the avenue to Donaldson
Road including on and aroundtheexitandentranceramps.Re-moval of the bus shelter at thecorner of Commonwealth Ave-nue and Baker Street is alsoplanned.TANKwill relocate thestop and build a new and moreaesthetically appealing shelter.
So far, the project has costabout $72,000. The total Gate-wayProjectcost,withunlimitedfunding,wouldbeabout$1.1mil-lion,accordingtoCarterDicker-son, landscape architect for theengineering group Viox & Viox.However, the city is workingwithcapital improvementfundsit has available and is open togrant opportunities.
Fields said the city is explor-ing grant options for beautifica-tioneffortsat thecity’sotherga-
teway on Dixie Highway, aswell.
The Commonwealth Avenueproject is being spread out overseveral years and will includeabout five phases. Futurephasescould includepedestrianstreetlightingwith12-footblacklantern poles. There are alsoplans to replace traffic signals,now dangling by wires, withthose hanging from mast-armtraffic signals, similar to thoseat 12th Street in Covington. Inaddition, there are plans for adecorative green space medianalong Commonwealth Avenue.
According to Hopkins thisbeautificationisalsoaboutmak-ing “new businesses feel wel-come and appreciated.
“We also want our longtimebusinesses to feel refreshed,”she said.
Fields said the beautificationwill have “a direct effect on re-vitalization of the community.”
“If people see the city fixingup the streets, that encouragesthem to fix up their properties,too,” he said. “Wewant to createthat idea and a sense of wel-come.”
EnvisioningCommonwealth Station
Last December the cityshared with residents the re-sults of a study of Common-wealthAvenueandsurroundingareas that yielded ideas for apossible redevelopmentdubbed
Commonwealth Station.Commonwealth Station en-
compasses Commonwealth Av-enue, portions of Erlanger andRiggs roads, Baker Street andCintonyaDrive.Asteeringcom-mitteemadeupofareapropertyand business owners had con-ducted workshops since 2012 togather inputon thepossiblepro-ject.
The study investigated newzoning options, specifically aform-based zoning code desig-nated for things like shoppingcenters, professional officesand single multifamily homes.This code would also preparethe land for development.

Form-based code zon-ing has been used andproven successful inBellevue and Cincinnati.According to formbased-codes.org, “Form-basedcodes address the rela-tionship between buildingfacades and the publicrealm, the form and massof buildings in relation toone another, and the scaleand types of streets andblocks.”
At theDecembermeet-ing Phil Drees, a propertyowner in the area whoserved on the steeringcommittee, urged councilmembers and the commu-nity to support the codechanges.
“Not much haschanged in this area in somany years,” he said.“We’ve got to do some-thing. This is a small step,agoodfirst step.Thisareahas so much potential, it’sa great area, we’ve got todo something here.”
According to Fields,underthenewcode,whichhas yet to be voted upon,no one’s property wouldbe taken and no ownerswould be forced to selltheir property. Fields saidthe city is planning to holdmeetingson the topicwithbusiness and propertyowners to gather furtherinputbefore introducingaproposed new code tocouncil.

It ispartofanation-wideconsolidationandex-
pected to be complete in2017.
With themove, the citystands to lose $1.3 millionin annual gross receiptsand payroll taxes.
Fields,however, isopti-mistic that the city canfind another company tomove into Toyota’s head-quarters.
“We also have pendingdevelopments on the ta-ble,” Fields told the Re-corder previously. “Whenwe see where they go,we’ll have a clearer pic-ture of the future andmaybe the Toyota blowwon’t be so bad. I can’tgive details, but there arepeople talking;whoknowswhat will happen.”

ERLANGER — The pathto college and careerreadiness begins in theearliest stages of a child’slife, according to KathyBurkhardt.
That’s why the Erlang-er-ElsmereSchoolssuper-intendent is so excitedabout Children Inc. open-ing an Early LearningCenter at LloydMemorial
HighSchool thisfall.
Found-ed in 1977,ChildrenInc., aUnit-ed Wayagencypartner,provides
high quality, readily ac-cessible child care, pre-school and school-agededucation programs withan emphasis on familysuccess.
“This partnership(with Children Inc.) willprovide high-qualitylearning experiences for3- to 5-year-olds,” Burk-hardt said. “We know thatmore than half of our en-tering kindergartners arenot in any type of child-care programs. There-fore, this center may helpaddress an unmet needfor families and the com-munity. Our goal is to al-ways do all we can for ourstudents to help themlearn and grow. This isoneofmany initiativeswehave in place to addresskindergarten readiness.”
Burkhardt said a large
bodyofbrainresearchex-ists that reveals that ifchildren are not exposedto high-quality, nurturingand engaging learning ex-periences during the cru-cial years ofbirth to age5,then they may start kin-dergarten already be-hind. In fact, only 10 per-cent of the brain is devel-oped at birth, but 95 per-cent isdevelopedbyage6.
Thecenterwill operateas an in-school preschooland will provide a highquality educational pro-gram to serve childrenwho are 3 to 5. Itwill oper-ate year-round with ex-tended hours, from 7 a.m.to 6 p.m. Monday throughFriday; it will close formajor holidays.
Children can attendfulldaysorhalfdays; theycan continue enrollmentduring the summer andschool breaks or they canattend only during theschool calendar year.
It's affordable, too, ac-cording to Children Inc.associate executivedirec-tor Phyllis Berry. Mostworking families that re-ceive free or reduced-price lunch will qualifyfor tuition assistance, shesaid.
Berry said that Chil-dren Inc. is “verygratefuland excited to serve fam-ilies in the area.”
“If a child is ready forkindergarten, they’ll dowell in their entire schoolcareer,” she said. “Ourgoal is to help every childin the district get ready tolearn.”
The new Early Learn-ing Center is expected toopen in September. Reno-vations are underway tocreate the new center inan unused section of anolder wing of Lloyd. Thecenter will be separatedfrom the rest of the build-ing, have its own facilitiesand include an outdoorplayground area.

Rahner aces Latin examthird year in a row
Perfect scores are hard tocome by – especially if you’re
talking about theNational LatinExam, spon-sored by theAmericanClassi-cal League andthe National Ju-nior ClassicalLeague.
But for threeyears in a row
CovingtonLatin student, JamesRahner(2015)hasachievedper-fection.
Only 28 students out of over140,000 from around the world,including students from Italy,France, Japan, Australia, HongKong, Spain, Germany, Singa-pore and the Phillippines whoparticipated, achieved this dis-tinction.
“Students are alwaysthrilled todowell on theNation-al Latin Exam, and CLS alwayshas students who write perfectpapers. But, for James to have
done that three years in a row isreally exceptional,” said KellyKusch, Latin teacher at CLS.“HisknowledgeofLatinandhisattention to detail have servedhimwell. I’m hoping he’ll writea perfect paper again nextyear.”
In addition to Rahner’s out-standing achievement, Coving-ton Latin also had three otherstudents garner perfect scoreson the 2014 National Latin Ex-am: Kelly Bilz (2014), GabrielleCottingham (2017) and Eliza-beth Johnson (2017).

Coleen is assisted by herdaughter Samantha and Sa-mantha’s husband, Josh Dietz.TheyDanielle train sevendaysa week. Danielle knows thatshe will be expected to repli-cate her success from fouryears ago, and is ready for thechallenge.
“I am very confident,” saidDanielle.
She should be, consideringall the hardwork she puts in toperfecting her routine. Shepractices seven days a weekfor at least three hours a day,training at MJM Studios inFlorenceandatFiveStarGym-nastics in Erlanger. She knowsthat practices are only going toget harder as she trains to rep-resent her country at the high-est level.
This will be the first timeDaniellehascompetedatLevelFour,which is the highest levelof competition. She spent twoyears practicing her LevelThree routing, and just beganimplementing her Level Fourroutine a month ago.

“I like rhythmic better,”said Danielle. “It’s a little easi-er, and I like to dance.”
Danielle received lots of at-tention after her showing in2011. She has been competingin the Special Olympics for 16yearsand isdeterminedtocon-tinue helping shine a light ongymnastics and Special Olym-pics in Northern Kentucky.
“We are hoping this willgrab more attention for thesport,” said Coleen.

The World Games inL.A. begin on July 25, 2015.Danielle remains humble, andapproaches her training as ifshe has to continue to earn herspot on TeamUSA.

Like many basketballplayers in Northern Ken-tucky, Brad Carr re-ceived some of his earlyteachings from coachinglegendKen Shields.
Carr, the head boysbasketball coach at ScottHigh School, took part incampswithShieldsinoth-ers back in the day, andthis week he has beenhelping local youths withtheir basketball journey.
“When I was a kid, Iwent to free camps andclinics sponsored by Co-vington Recreation,” hesaid. “Coach Shields wasthe camp coordinator.You didn’t have to payanything there. You gothere and you get goodquality instruction. It’sprobablywhyIfell in lovewith basketball.”
Carr is the camp coor-dinator for the TayshaunPrince Camp, which ranAug. 4-6 at Thomas MoreCollege and surroundingelementaries. Roughly150youthstookpart inthebasketball clinic, whichbenefits the local Kicksfor Kids organization.

He scored 1,775points in a UK uniformand helped the Wildcatsto97winsand fourNCAATournament appear-ances. This is the fourthyear Prince has been in-volved with the localcamp.
The camp, benefittingKicks For Kids (KFK) is
designed to teach thepar-ticipants the basic skillsof ball-handling, passing,scoring, rebounding, de-fense as well as how tocompete and be a teamplayer.
Campers received in-dividual photos withPrince, an instructionalDVD featuring the camp-er, Prince and his staff;and participate in dailyindividual and team com-petitions with awards.

The NewYork Times, apaper that has many timesprinted articles endorsing theprohibition of cannabis andeditorializing in favor of con-tinuing this prohibition hasthrown in the towel. Sunday,
July 27, sawthe end ofthat position.The Timeseditorialboard ran aneditorialcalling forthe end ofcannabisprohibition.The Timesjoins severalconservativepublications
such as The National Reviewin this position.
The Times rightly consid-ered the evidence and decidedprohibition is a failure and thetime has come for full legal-ization on the federal level.Public opinion has moved onthis issue over the last 20years and at this time themajority of Americans favor,not just medical cannabis, butfull legalization for the indus-trial, medical and recreationaluse of marijuana.
The Office of Drug ControlPolicy, (ONDCP), respondedof course. Their response waswhat you would expect, vagueassertions of negative out-comes when using cannabisfor any reason. Interestingly,as public knowledge of canna-bis and its many uses becomecommon, the ONDCP hasbecomemore selective in itspredictions of doom andgloom. They cited four talkingpoints as the reasons for con-tinuing the total prohibition ofcannabis.
1. Marijuana affects thedeveloping brain. This onestarted in 2009 when GordonBrown was PrimeMinister ofEngland. He wanted to raisepenalties for cannabis claim-ingmarijuana causedmentalillness and schizophrenia. Hewas trying to gin up votesfrom the Conservatives. Hischief medical adviser quit
over it. Since then, with noevidence to support it, thisnotion has devolved to, “Can-nabis causes schizophrenia inteens” and from that to, “cog-nitive impairment in the de-veloping brain.” None of thishas any solid evidence tosupport it.
2. Marijuana has a detri-mental effect on academicachievement. Students whoget D’s and E’s are more likelyto be cannabis users. OK.Let’s just say that having lowgrades are also more likely tocome from teenagers living indysfunctional circumstances.Which came first, dysfunc-tional families or cannabisuse?Most likely the dysfunc-tional family.
These first two points aremoot anyway because canna-bis will still remain illegal forpersons under 21.
3. Marijuana is addictive.Yes cannabis is somewhataddictive in the same way icecream or Twinkies or televi-sion can be addictive and wehaven’t made them illegal tosave the citizens from them.
4. Drugged driving is athreat to our roadways. Thisone’s easy to debunk. Like theschizophrenia claim, one hasonly to ask, “Where are thebodies?” Just as there are nonumbers supporting theschizophrenia claim there isno increase in traffic acci-dents to support this claimeither. Seventeen years ofCalifornians accessing canna-bis and no numbers showingany increase in accidents.
Seventy-seven years ofpropaganda and the suppres-sion of personal freedom andit all comes down to four talk-ing points debunked. Theprohibition of cannabis hasbeen as dismal a failure as the13-year prohibition of alcoholwas. We have destroyedmil-lions of lives and wasted bil-lions in treasure and forwhat? Can we just stop itnow?

Questions statementabout Erlanger tax rates
There is an old saying thatyou can have numbers saywhat you want them to say.
Mayor Rouse’s guest col-umn of July 24 stated that“Erlanger’s tax rates sitsquarely in the middle of thepack of all Northern Kentuckycommunities.”
His statement is far fromthe truth.
Erlanger’s property tax rateof 0.3570 per $100 valuation isthe sixth highest of the 36 cit-ies in Northern Kentucky.
The tangible tax rate of0.6780 per 100 valuation is theseventh highest in NorthernKentucky. These are 2013rates.
The above information wastaken from public recordslisted on Northern KentuckyCommunity Profile.
Mayor Rouse needs to ex-plain himself.
Ed NordlohErlanger
Should taxes pay forreproductive issues?
While The Hobby Lobbydecision focused on companiesbeing required to insure con-traceptive devices, it alsobrought to mind again thequestion of whether or not taxmoney should be spent on re-productive issues.
There is the basic biologicalfact that babies are an absolutenecessity. Without themwebecome extinct.
Viagra and products likethat can help create new lifeby making a male human ableto perform the deed of fertiliz-ing the egg. Contraceptivedevises of any kind are de-signed to prevent new life.Abortion is a surgical proce-dure which kills new life.
That being the case, whereshould our tax dollars bespent? Creating new life, pre-venting new life or killing thenew life before it can be born?

Thanks for bringingbenefit to light
I want to thank the Record-er and columnist CharlesBrewer for “Little-known ben-efit can help veterans.” Thisbenefit available for veteransand their families can be diffi-cult to navigate and it’s heart-breaking to hear of familieswho have wasted their money.
The VA has implemented aFully Developed Claims Proc-ess to apply for the pension aswell as other VA benefits. Thisprocess is designed to stream-line claims that are ready to bedecided the moment they enterthe VA system. Residents inKentucky can locate contactinformation for their localrepresentative at veterans.ky-.gov or by calling 502-595-4447.A veteran can confirm accredi-tation at va.gov/ogc/apps/ac-creditation/index.asp.

“School board, because ourchildren are the future of ourcommunity.”

“None. It’s all a game be-tween the two-party systempitting us against one another.”
John Bernard
“The school board electionspresent a situation where fresheyes and ears can become animmediate majority.”
Aaron Gillum
“... Get back to the Constitu-tion with focus on freedom andliberty. Both parties areflawed.”
Joe Kalil
“Closing the gap on finan-cial inequality via the Senate.”
Lesley Chambers
“The near-term future ofKentucky depends in largepart on who will occupy theU.S. Senate seat for our com-
monwealth. Kentucky Secre-tary of State Alison LunderganGrimes has launched a hugeeffort to unseat incumbentMitch McConnell. Grimes hastaken positions on Kentucky’skey issues: job creation andraising the minimumwage,pay equity for women, supportof our coal industry and reduc-ing the federal regulations thatweigh down our energy indus-try. She opposes McConnell’sgoal to privatize Social Securi-ty, and she has spoken outstrongly against McConnell’splan to destroy Medicare as weknow it.
“Grimes is not owned bycorporations and has not beendulled into the torpor and ri-gidity of Washington politics
and politicians.“McConnell has, time after
time, voted against raising theminimumwage. He declared inpublic that creating jobs is nothis job. If McConnell has beensuch a promoter of resourcesfor Kentucky, how come weare still mired in unemploy-ment, low wages, attacks onthe coal industry, inequalityfor women, staggering studentdebt and grave citizen healthissues?
“Alison will bring freshenergy, smarter ideas, effec-tive use of modern technology,and a willingness to workacross the aisle – all of whichMcConnell has failed at.McConnell has been especiallygood at protecting the million-aires and billionaires who cur-rently runWashington.
If McConnell really had thepower, vision and sense ofresponsibility he claims tohave, how come he has beentotally unsuccessful in bring-ing federal money to NorthernKentucky to help replace theBrent Spence bridge? He hasnot been minding the store.”

BrynMooth, whowrites the food blogWrites4Food.com, amongother creative endeavors,stopped by my home lastweek to visit my herbgarden and chat.
We found out we hadlots in com-mon whenit comes tofood andgardening,though Iwill sayBryn looksway tooyoung to beso accom-plished.Her blog
has doable, really goodrecipes with beautifulphotos. One that caughtmy eye recently was herFrench picnic salad in ajar. Oh my gosh, I wantedto dig into the photo witha fork, it looked thatgood. I’m sharing therecipe here.
By the way, this fallshe’ll be publishing herbook “The Findlay Mar-ket Cookbook” with sto-ries and recipes thatcelebrate our unique andhistoric Findlay Market.The book focuses on foodthat vendors are proud tosell along with their sto-ries and histories.
MyMom and Daddrove their Chevy toFindlay just about everyweek when we were kids.They had certain favoritevendors who knew themby name just like I dotoday. Mom and Dadalways got good bargains,witnessed by a trunk loadof ethnic foods for ourLebanese table!
Bryn’s Frenchpicnic salad in a jar
Bryn says: “A beauti-ful layered salad in a jar(She used aWeck .5LMold jar), perfect fortransporting to a picnicor, less romantically, tothe office. You could spinthis salad-in-a-jar thing amillion different ways,but I went for a riff onthe classic French nicoisesalad, with steamed pota-toes, green beans and amustardy vinaigrette. Ifyou layer the dressing onthe bottom and the let-tuce on the top, then yoursalad ingredients staynice and fresh and crisp
until you’re ready to eat,at which point you simplyshake the jar to distributethe dressing, and stickyour fork all the way tothe bottom to get a bit ofeverything in one bite.”

Rita’s freshpeppermint iced tea
For Matt, who has anabundance of mint andasked: “How do I sub-stitute fresh mint for theamount of mint that’s in ateabag?”
Take a generous cou-ple handful of mintleaves and crush them alittle between your palmsor with a spoon to releasethe healthful oils. Placeinto a large mug or jar.Pour 2 cups simmeringwater over, cover andsteep about 10 minutes.Strain and taste. Addmore water if you like.Cool and pour over ice. Ilike to sweeten it withraw honey or Stevia andserve with a wedge ofcitrus.
Tips fromRita’s garden
Along with vitamin C,mint is a good digestiveherb and the tea is a natu-ral coolant.

Despite so much suc-cess, McDaniel said hewas a bit surprised by thehonor.
“I received an emailfrom the program direc-tor and I was astonished,”he said. “With all of the
great things that NKUalumni are doing aroundtheworld every day, Iwashumbled that they wouldselect me for this award.”
The decision wasn’t asdifficult as the senatormight believe.

Before attendingNKU, McDaniel servedfour years as an infantryofficer in the UnitedStates Army and graduat-ed fromTheCitadel.Oncehe returned home, it wastime to further his educa-tion andNorthernwas the
place to do it.“After leaving the
Army, I joined the familybusiness and knew that ifI wanted to see it flourish,I needed to further mybusiness education,”McDaniel said. “With con-venient class schedules, agreat reputation, and agreat location, I knew thatNKU was the right fit forme.”
He started to see re-sults immediately.
McDaniel said the bestpart of the NKU MBAprogram was havingclasses with professorswho were a mix of acade-miaandreal-worldpracti-tioners. “This allowed thetheory of what I learnedat night to be put intopractice thenextmorningat our family business,”he said.
McDaniel is the thirdwinner of the Dr. TomCate Distinguished Alum-ni of the Year award, join-ingEricTeegarden (2012),an executive at GeneralElectric, and Jeeva Ku-mar (2013) who runs ZFSteering in Florence.
